I am the Lord your God
Who has given His only Son
For the redemption of sins.
Outside my given guidance for man
There endures no lasting life
And I will demand account
Not alone of actions, but of thoughts.
I am the eternal word of light,
Enter not to burn, but to see,
Be born anew out of my Grace
To pass its peace among you.
My word is wholesome food,
It ripens high in the mind,
Separates good and evil ways.
My word is forgiveness,
It lays out its paths plainly
To guide all erring souls.
Both reflections of my kingdom,
But none will see my light,
Unless in the spirit of humility.
Transgressing my given guidance,
Perpetrators have judged themselves,
First hypocrites in plain suits,
Guilty of pretence and crime,
And abominators without choice
Will run for their ropes,
But I gather my humble sheep.
